Basically I can echo pretty much what bro kristiano said.

- The stock charger is a super slow 5W one and basically it comes in two part - an adapter and a cable. The cable will allow you to plug into your PC/Laptop to sync via iTunes or to backup your photos. If you want slightly faster charging, you can get an iPad 12W adapter around RM70-RM80, or if you need even faster charging, you could get a USB Type C PD adapter and a USB C to lightning cable separately.

- Yes, it's front and back are made of glass to enable wireless charging. You can stick a tempered glass up front for protection and get a good case from any phone accessories shop to cover the back. Cases comes in all sorts of designs and can come as cheap as RM5 to as expensive as RM200, so you have ample choices.

- Touch ID is basically Apple's fancy way of saying fingerprint reader. iPhone 8/8 Plus is the last iPhone to use this, thereafter Face ID (Apple's fancy way of saying facial recognition) replaces this in iPhone X, as you correctly put it.

- Nope, personally never used AR before although I have tried the new Measure app.

Thanks for both your answers.

1. All those faster chargers you mentioned, are all of those Apple brand and must buy from Apple stores?

You can buy 3rd party ones as well, but stick to a few reputable brands like Tronsmart, Aukey and Anker.

By the way, the iPhone 8 256GB is going for 2,949 on Lazada today

It’s the one I referred earlier that you just need to put on top of it. I saw photos of it - round disc shape. And it’s flat. It’s not supplied within the box. I thought you said it would. Or, have I been cheated?

I already felt cheated with the lower price 😭

Oh you meant wireless charger? No, of course not. Those are all sold separately.

I thought you meant this one which is included. laugh.gif

Some people still believe that iPhone has good resale value so they set prices that are quite surreal sometimes smile.gif

But we live in a free market, willing buyer, willing seller smile.gif

If I were you and do not urgently need a phone I will wait for apple to ann the new iPhone first. By that time u can either choose the 2nd gen upgraded xr or the lowered price existing xr. Imo from 8 to xr isn't a huge jump to me

4-5 months till next gen comes to our shores. And based on the renders not much changes also. I'd go for the XR now.
